    Not surprised at lack of impressions so far; I think the game has been available to the general public for the eternity that is 38 minutes.

    Seriously though, my brother's out buying the game now, and I'll get to play it after my classes end at 2.

        I'm going to go get this game today, along with Mario Galaxy. If anyone's going to be around today around 1 or 2pm, let me know. I'd love to give this a whirl online with some of you.

              I buy SvR every year-it is a given for me. Impressions to follow once I get down to Gamestop and pick it up. Surely they made enough improvements/features to warrant a purchase. Gotta have at least one wrestling game around! I'm a PS3 owner so this will be a first for that console.

                  I am still shocked there are no impressions yet.

                    Whoah. Something just hit me. This will be the first time in YEARS I've unwrapped a WWE video game and don't jump right into a match with Chris Benoit. Kinda sad...

                      Yea that is sad.

                      Impressions still welcome. I am still bitter about my 2 losses to you, but I am bored at work and will forgive you if you start posting impression.

                        Yeah...while HBK was always the first guy I'd use, I always remember Benoit being one of the first so I could see his suplexes and whatnot.

                        I'm up in the air on this one...if TRU has this with the gift card when I go to get SMG with gift card then I'll pick it up now, otherwise it may be a December pickup. I can't pass on a WWE game, just too many games (and deals) out now. They're making it hard to wait on a game when some stores are cutting price or offering perks.

                            Relaying impressions from my brother who has been talking about the game with me over IM while I do my homework...

                            -in general feels similar to last year's Smackdown game
                            -Shawn Michaels' music is not the arena version of his theme (apparently it's a version off Full Metal: The Album, which is the same song at a different pitch)
                            -fighting styles are a neat addition, particularly for the speed wrestlers; they actually seem like they have a chance now
                            -in order to assign custom music on the XBOX360, you have to put a particular track in it's own playlist; kinda wonky, but not major
                            -24/7 mode is horrible (he didn't give specifics, but this is not the first time I've heard this)

                            Again I have not personally played the game yet but will get to later. I'll try join you all online, but I have to go through a ton of trouble to get online here at UVa, and I can't always get on. I also realize the above isn't much, but it's something to start with, heh.

                              If anybody gets it I'm anxious to hear how the wii version is. If it sucks then I may get the ps2 version.
